Reign E+ 2022

It will go a lot further if you stick to the lower power modes, I think if I did a ride in mode 2 or 3 the whole time I could go quite a bit further. While I’m climbing in auto it definitely is using full power while going up fire roads, if I use auto it will use a bar of battery in the first 20 min or about 7 or so km of riding. I’m also 230lbs, so that probably doesn’t help.

I get the stop pedalling noise out of the motor as well, the noise I heard was while pedalling up using power, I’ll see if it happens again.

How is your experience about battery consumption. I'm a little frustrated about mine with the 625 wh. My first ride happens 95% at 200% push, so it's the middle of what is possible but it costs me 74% battery power for 31.3 km and 847hm. That means around 40km and 1000 hm it's over ☹
My weight is 92 kg.

Buone notizie sull'autonomia della batteria, ma Ride Control d+ non è vero, la mia app ouxMaps di solito è vera (so che questo tour è qualcosa in più di 1400d+

Which mode were you riding the most ?
 
This is the noise it makes when you pedal hard and stop suddenly, then in normal gear it goes well, it is only in some sudden acceleration and stop.
The bike has 50 kilometers, is it normal for the new pw-x3 engine? It does not affect the operation, just that engine noise.

@Polaris - I do have a 1 Model which comes with Shimano. 0 is built with SRAM components.
Stem depends on Frame size. Medium came with 40mm length.

Thanks bud, the pics of the E+0 above have XT’s fitted too, that’s why I asked.

Your stem doesn’t look like the Giant Contact SL 35 that these come with either :D

Hello,

My 2022 E+1 sounds like this too.
When i ride and try to pedal with the wrong gear (typically a gear too low for the speed my bike is moving), it sounds like this.
I guess it's related to the internal gears (motor engaging / disengaging, based on sensors informations).

I hope that with some update they will solve it

If it's technology related, i think we'll have to deal with it.
The pw-x3 is so nice for everything else, i won't mind.
And the annoyance on a 3 or 4H ride may count for 5 to 10 occurrences, lasting each 1 to 3 seconds, so ...

On a another side :
My E+1 arrived the first week from october.
I had issue for charging my battery (inside the bike), with insane recharge time.
I went to LBS, got an update.
Battery recharge time is ok now. But i noticed the motor became even better, in every aspect (especially the peak power on smartassist, more powerfull when things go crazy).
 
Anyone got some or seen any comparisons between Spesh or Bosch in terms of range / performance of the motor? There's not a great deal of comparison info yet, obviously supply is playing a part in this. My E+1 comes in early December, was thinking a rail but this beast looks mega.
 
Just got an update when I connected the app to the bike this morning, is there any way to know what Giant is updating exactly ?
 
If you go to the App and the Update starts it say smart gateway 10y update. If you check Google is that the brain which controls the can bus and the data handling with bt and ant+.

Smart Gateway is the name of the new interface for the control units. Almost all new Giant and Liv e-bikes have it. The system is not backwards compatible.

In the app you can check the version under bike details. What it fixes i don't know.

Hi,

got my E+ 0 last Week and did about 120 km in total. Is there any way to tell this stupid app to reconnect by itself when the connection was lost during an Ride? I always have to press "Tap here to reconnect" to continue the ride.


@jaylkay:

i can give you an comparison to an 2021´Levo and 2018´Kenevo:
- Batterie consumption even or slytly better (compared to Levo 700Wh )
- Yamaha louder
- strange sound when decuppling from high revs
- Brose has more bottom power- Yamaha likes high cadence

Greetings from Germany

Compared to my Levo 2020 it feels different for me. In my mind the brose has not as much torque at low cadence as the yamaha but more power at the top. My feeling depends especially to the afterrun of the brose that makes it sometimes more difficult for technical sections. Technical uphill sections with the yamaha are easier for me because the motor stops when i stop and if i start pedaling i can do it slower with more torque what makes me more stable.

To battery consumption i'm in trouble with mine and i have to do more tests but for that i'll be back later.

For the rest i'm with you.
 
Just did a ride with a friend riding a 2019 Turbo Levo S-Works with the 700WH battery. He tried my 2022 Reign E+2, immediately saw that the Yamaha motor has less bottom end power, requires a few pedal spins and good cadence to feel the boost.

I wasn't able to climb as fast as my friend as I must downshift to get that high cadence to get the motor boost me up the hill.

I'm 100lbs more than my friend combined with the fact that the Brose has more low end power, I'm having a hard time folowing him on the steeper climbs, otherwise no problem going as fast.

I will also need a 2nd battery or Energypark plus, otherwise I'll be out of battery rather quickly (I'm 260lbs).

I also switched the flip chip to the HIGH position, did anyone notice any changes by switching the flip chip ?

Good clean up after a muddy ride!

I want opinions from people who also have the new yamaha pw-x3 engine in the new giant reign 20222, the bike has only 50 km, I want to know if it is normal or if someone who has the same model also happens.
when you pedal, it has a little dead center, before you start to push the wheel with a clicking noise.

This is slightly disappointing to hear, I presume the power isn’t being limited by software somehow? Settings or app on full boost? I’m hearing a few others are hearing odd noises on disengagement etc?

That sounds normal after coming from shimano and Bosch systems, just sounds like motor engagement

Are you using auto-mode? Or the standard settings? This is interesting, as I've never tried a Brose, but find the Yamaha pretty torquey in general.

Power is maxed out for every mode in my app.

Using standard settings, did not try auto-mode yet, but I'm pretty sure result will be the same.

The Yamaha is really powerful and torquey once up to the proper cadence, never running out of power and I find myself lowering the power mode most of the time because I find it too powerful.

The only major flaw in my case is on steeper climbs where cadence is lowering, the Yamaha motor is a lacking that high torque output for me.

That sounds normal like my 2020 reign did
 
Hey can anyone with a '22 Reign 0 tell me if the cassette is 52 tooth or 50? Or if the derailleur is 52 tooth compatible ie Eagle Lunar? Can't tell in the pictures, but I do like the big bailout ratio the Lunar 52 tooth cassette provides. I have a Reign 0 on order but delivery keeps getting delayed ...
